Charlie bit my finger
This makes my uterus itchy. Of course my kids will need to be that cute and have British accents.

I love it when kids do things like that. Every once in a while one of mine will come up to me all teary and say something like "I was running full speed down the hallway and I slammed into the door and I'm bleeding...wah." and I'm all "Yeah, how about that." Maybe I'd be more sympathetic if they had cute British accents.
By the way, I notice that you've got The Lost Language of Cranes over there in your "enjoying" thingy. I read that book in college and became temporarily obsessed with David Leavitt. I still have my copy -- it's one of those giant 80s trade paperbacks. I remember reading a book of short stories by him afterward and thinking he had some major Daddy Issues.
That's a page out of my younger sister's book of parenting. Love it.
And I'm a bit obsessed with David Leavitt NOW. After I finish The Omnivore's Dilemma, I'm gonna start his book about Alan Turing, father of modern computing/queer genius.
I'm a simple guy. I like y'all, but don't tell me you're a "people person", OK?
Also, if you tell me you are "straight-acting", I'll still be polite (Grandma Betsy lives on in me), but we'll be through. I read. I can love you if you don't read much, but if you read really bad shit, then I may not be able to love you. I'm liberal. Way. Who doesn't enjoy a nice trip (or a nice piece of fish)? I've traveled some, and I'll arrange my life so that I always can. Old people, babies (in their case, I think it's because my head/body ratio is similar), and your mother dig me (probably more than you do), and I'm OK with that. Know that if I am into you, I'll be amenable to just about anything. He'll be a lucky man who I aim to please. I'm aiming just thinking about you.

Britney Spears was cute...
and has a British accent too.
just something to keep in mind when the uterus itches.
That made me snort, Jason.
And good point.
Ha! My kids will have English accents!
Can I have whichever one you don't love as much?
